Synchronization About synchronization The wireless data synchronization feature is designed to synchronize organizer data (contacts, calendar entries, tasks, and memos) between your BlackBerry® device and the email application on your computer over the wireless network.

When you file or delete email messages on your device, these email messages should be filed or deleted in your email application.

Custom contact list field data is not appearing on my computerYou can only synchronize the data in a custom contact list field with a text field in the email application on your computer. For example, you cannot add a contact's birthday to a custom contact list field on your BlackBerry® device and synchronize it with the email application on your computer, because the birthday field is a date field in the email application on your computer. Some characters in calendar entries do not appear correctly after synchronization If you schedule appointments or meetings on your BlackBerry® device that contain special characters or accents, your computer might not support these characters. On your computer, verify that you are using the correct default code page and that the correct font support is installed on your computer.

Bluetooth technology Bluetooth technology basics About Bluetooth technology Bluetooth® technology is designed to enable you to establish a wireless connection between your BlackBerry® device and a Bluetooth enabled device, such as a handsfree car kit or wireless stereo headset. Before you can connect your BlackBerry device to a Bluetooth enabled device, you must first turn on Bluetooth technology on both devices and then pair the devices. Pairing establishes a relationship between the devices and usually needs to be done only once. After you have paired the devices, you can then connect the devices when the Bluetooth enabled device is within range of your BlackBerry device (a typical range is approximately 10 meters). For best results, keep your BlackBerry device within direct line of sight of the Bluetooth enabled device. For example, if your BlackBerry device is on the right side of your body, wear a Bluetooth enabled headset in your right ear. When you turn on Bluetooth technology or when you connect your BlackBerry device to another Bluetooth enabled device, Bluetooth status indicators appear at the top of the Home screen. For more information about Bluetooth indicators, see the printed documentation that came with your BlackBerry device. Turn on Bluetooth technology 1. On the Home screen, click the Manage Connections icon. 2. Select the Bluetooth check box. To turn off Bluetooth® technology, clear the Bluetooth check box.
